Overview

I am a 30 year old mother of two beautiful daughters, Karli and Ma'leyah. I am an aspiring business owner, who dreams of one day owning her own brand and company.

My goals are to be a successful business woman, helping and investing in small Black business. I also would like to support the youth and other Black business owners in my community. My ambitions are to be an inspiration to my children, family and community.

I need a tablet so that I can participate in virtual employment while I save to accomplish my goal. The pandemic has impacted my ability to work, and I am trying to find a virtual position. Because I have to help my kids with their virtual learning at home, it is important for me to find a job that allows me to work virtually.

Meeting this need will help me because it will ensure that I have a connection to employment. Along with this, it would help me work on my business plan as I work from home and save money to make this dream come true. It will also allow for me to stay home with my kids and work. It is hard to find childcare for them during the pandemic that would accommodate their virtual learning.
